I normally don't do this kind of thing, but I'm hoping comic book shop champion and cheerleader @gailsimone.bsky.social will boost this signal.

My local comic shop, That's Entertainment is Worcester, MA, is eligible for the Worcester Legacy Business recognition. They SO deserve it. (1/3)

Fantastic Four / Gargoyles #1 Preview Get your first look at Fantastic Four / Gargoyles #1 from Greg Weisman and Enid BalΓ‘m, published by Marvel Comics

Fantastic Four x Gargoyles jumps around a lot, but if you love Gargoyles then you'll have so much fun with this. You'll hear the characters speak in the actor's voices & will really want to see this animated. Show creator Weisman writes it & does the right things for both properties.

Spider-man vs the Sinister Sixteen was the most fun comic I've read in a while. We need those. I even laughed a few times. Peter Parker made it on the reservation of a new restaurant, but so did a ton of other heroes & villains. Can they enjoy a chaos free meal? Well done @straczynski.bsky.social
